Meat made me look like a fool! A fool I say! Now where's my pants? --------------------------------------------------------- Man I love this movie... Ray Parker Jr. - Ghostbusters themeGhostbusters" is a song recorded by Ray Parker Jr. as the theme to the film of the same name starring Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd. It hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on August 11 in 1984, and stayed there for three weeks. An instrumental version of the song serves as the theme song for the spin-off cartoon series The Real Ghostbusters. Parker Jr. was approached by the film's producers to create a theme song for the film. Unfortunately, he only had a few days to do so and the film's title seemed impossible to include in any lyrics. However, when watching television late at night, Parker Jr. saw a cheap commercial for a local service that reminded him that the film had a similar commercial featured for the fictional business. This inspired him to write the song as a pseudo-advertising jingle that the business could have commissioned as a promotion. Parker was later the defendant in a copyright-infringement lawsuit which claimed "Ghostbusters" was too similar in musical structure to "I Want a New Drug", written and performed by Huey Lewis & the News (more specifically, the guitar riff which runs through the song). "I Want a New Drug" was a U.S. top ten hit earlier the same year. The two parties settled out of court, with Parker paying Lewis a settlement. In later years, AutoNation adopted the theme for their advertising campaign. Vs. Cyndi Lauper - She BopAn accompanying music video aired heavily on MTV and featured Lauper as a quirky sexual liberator leading the brainwashed masses to their own liberation. (This was done in metaphor showing teenagers as disgusting fast-food consuming zombies.) There were many hidden meanings, including a magazine that Lauper is staring out titled "Beefcake" and other sexual meanings such as the "self-service" sign and three gas pumps with the signs Normal, Better and Nirvana in the cartoon part of the video, the vibrating motorcycle, the "masterbingo" part of the video with "Uncle Siggy" Sigmund Freud as host, and Lauper wearing blackout glasses with a white cane in several scenes of the video. |

Eye of the Tiger It won a People's Choice Award for crying out loud! Last check, I was a person. How come I cannot vote for these awards? I think they changed it in recent years, but in the beginning they determined the winners based on the results on a random telephone survey. So 100 bored housewives determined the best in entertainment. They should run the Oscars that way. ;D |

I want an Ecto 1. I'm totally buying a Hearse/Old Fashioned Ambulance and making one. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Adam meet Pete. Pete meet Adam. Adam Ant - Goody Two Shoes"Goody Two Shoes" is a popular song by Adam Ant. The song was released on the album Friend or Foe in 1982. The title phrase is a disparaging term for someone who is overly virtuous or conformist. Following the dissolution of Adam and the Ants in early 1982, Adam Ant pursued a solo career. His debut as a solo artist Goody Two Shoes, was written by Adam Ant and Marco Pirroni and produced by Ant, Pirroni and Chris Hughes. The song details his frustration with press intrusion, which was reinforced by the video and his clean cut image. The song was an instant hit reaching #1 on the UK singles chart for two weeks in June 1982 and later repeating the feat in Australia. Despite the success this was his third and final #1 single. The song was his first and biggest hit on the Billboard hot 100 in the US peaking at #12. Punk band Unwritten Law later covered this song. The original version, by Adam Ant, was featured in the film Hot Fuzz. Vs. Peter Gabriel - In Your Eyes"In Your Eyes" is a hit rock/pop single from Peter Gabriel's 1986 album So. It reached #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks and #26 on Billboard Hot 100 in both 1986 and 1987. It was not released as a single in the UK. Gabriel later released an extended version of the song which was 7-9 minutes in length (as compared to the original 5:29). Like many of his songs, "In Your Eyes" contains significant African influences, even more so when performed live (on the So tour) as an extended vocal duet with Youssou N'Dour. In 1989, the song appeared in the Cameron Crowe film, Say Anything, in a scene where broken-hearted Lloyd Dobler (John Cusack) serenades his former girlfriend (Ione Skye) outside her bedroom window by holding up a boombox above his head and playing the song for her. Although this popularized the song, it failed to crack the top 20. The song was included on the US version of his 2003 compilation Hit, but not on the European or Japanese versions. In 1993, Gabriel performed the song on Saturday Night Live.[1] |
